Kenya Miracle Election

Job 33:14  For God may speak in one way, or in another, yet man does not perceive it. v15 In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls upon men, while slumbering on their beds, v16 Then He opens the ears of men and seals their instruction. v17 In order to turn man from his deed, and conceal pride from man, v18 He keeps back his soul from the Pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.

Beloved, Kenya just finished a contentious election cycle with the election of President William Ruto, the first ever evangelical Christian to be elected in this country.  His campaign slogan was "Hustler Nation", and his symbol was the yellow wheelbarrow, signifying the bottom up economic model to lift up the working men and women of Kenya.  We give thanks to God for a very peaceful election, and for this man William Ruto and his wife, Rachel.  In October 2021, the Lord gave me a dream and showed me a man pushing a wheelbarrow, with a large, shiny red tomato in the wheelbarrow.  It was the Grand Prize tomato of the County Fair.  At Living Water Church we also believe in getting our hands dirty for the kingdom.  As you can see in the picture above, we finished a mud house for our church member, Isaac, on the same day as the inauguration of President Ruto.  A great day for Isaac and for the nation of Kenya.  Stand with us as we build the kingdom here in Kenya, with work projects, preaching the gospel, caring for the widows and orphans.  Pray about your part in helping us here in Africa!  May God bless you as you pray!

Building the Wall

 

Dear beloved:  Pics, Praying for Tanzania Masai refugees; Crusade in Ngozi, Burundi

Nehemiah 4:16 So it was, from that time on, that half of my servants worked at construction, while the other half held the spears, the shields, the bows, the armor; and the leaders were behind all the house of Judah. v17 Those who built on the wall, and those who carried burdens, loaded themselves so that with one hand they worked at construction, and with the other held a weapon. v18 Every one of the builders had his sword girded at his side as he built.  And the one who sounded the trumpet was beside me. 

Beloved, this picture that Nehemiah painted of the battle he faced when building the wall of Jerusalem is a picture of our daily battle with the demonic realm. The battle for the whole earth and against the spirit of the antichrist is the overarching battle described in God's word.  But the battle we need to be most focused on is the battle you and I are involved in each and every day. The enemy is right in front of us!  We succeed in battle by having a sword (the word of God) in one hand, and the tools for building (cameras, video cameras, platforms, sound systems, plane tickets, etc) in our other hand, prepared to build. Our leaders, the pastors, evangelists, elders, etc., are the ones who blow the trumpet to rally the troops to each region or battle front. We don't spend much time talking or teaching about the mark of the beast or what day Jesus will return.  The battle is now and it is intense.  We have many needs and projects that are on hold, waiting for provision.  We are not waiting for the seals or trumpets or bowls to be enacted.  Many people are in the valley of decision right now, and even worse on their way to eternal darkness.  Our job is to lead them to Christ, to share the good news of the gospel.  We invite you to partner with Gather the Outcasts as we take the gospel to children through our feeding program, and to the young people and adults at the church meetings and crusades.  Pray about your part in helping us.  May God bless you as you pray!

The Battle is God's

 

Dear beloved:  Pics,  Very nice maize with bean intercrop; Making concrete fence posts

2 Chron 20:15 And Jahaziel said, " Listen, all you inhabitants of Judah and Jerusalem, and you, King Jehoshaphat! Thus says the Lord to you: Do not be afraid nor dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but God's." v17 You will not need to fight in this battle. Position yourselves, stand still and see the salvation of the Lord, who is with you, O Judah and Jerusalem! Do not fear or be dismayed; tomorrow go out against them, for the Lord is with you."

Beloved, we frequently fall into fear or discouragement when we look at all the problems and mountains in our lives. When we are striving to serve the Lord, the enemy is also working his best to derail us from our destiny and the works of the kingdom. You have probably heard the phrase, "higher level, more devil!"  But we serve a mighty God, and the Commander of the Lord's Army, Jesus Christ.  We have the ministering flames of fire and the battle tested warrior angels at our disposal.  Call upon the Lord in your day of trouble, seek the Lord while He may be found.  King Jehoshaphat found out the words of the prophet were true and led to preservation; he led Judah and Jerusalem in praise and worship of the Lord, and the enemies ambushed each other!  It was a great victory for King Jehoshaphat, and he didn't even have to get out his sword.  Beloved, we invite you to partner with Gather the Outcasts as we battle in Makunda Village for our abandoned children and the Living Water Church.  It is a continuous challenge.  We are also organizing for a crusade in Arusha, TZ, we need to move forward on that front as well. Pray about your part. May God bless you as you pray!
